Abstract:A complete TCAD model addressing Hot Carrier Degradation for Flash technology is presented. After having underlined the need for a power law with a low exponent for the aging kinetics and considered a high activation energy reflecting the single electron impact mode, a fine calibration is achieved. Finally, analysis on trap distribution and aging rates at different channel locations are provided
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
